Movie buffs can park at any one of the 21 free Metro Park-Ride lots in Missouri and Illinois, ride MetroLink to the Forest Park-DeBaliviere MetroLink Station, and then hop on the #3 Forest Park Trolley for a quick trip to Art Hill and the St. Louis Art Museum to enjoy the movie, food, music and fun on July 8, July 15, July 22 and July 29.

On these Fridays, the trolley will operate every 30 minutes between 7:20 p.m. and 8:50 p.m. for Metro passengers headed to the film showings on Art Hill. After the movies have ended, the trolley will provide return trips from the Saint Louis Art Museum to the Forest Park-DeBaliviere Station at 11:25 p.m. on July 8 and July 15, and at 11:40 p.m. on July 22 and July 29.
